Battlefield: Bad Company 2 PC Patch Releases Wednesday

This Wednesday, a new patch for Battlefield: Bad Company 2 is being released for the PC.

Its main goal is to address stability problems with the game and performance issues. It is not intended to address game logic fixes.

The patch will be 2.6GB in size and will include the following fixes:

  • Clantag is remembered when using auto-login
  • Banner URLs can be up to 252 characters in length
